The last two eps were pretty weak, felt contrived, and rushed.
The show had its ups and downs, but overall it was a great first season. A lot of shows take some time to find their legs, but I think Discovery started to find theirs rather quickly. If you look [waaay] back to other Star Treks, earlier seasons are barely watchable (TNG seasons 1-3, DS9 1-3, Enterprise 1-2, and Voyager 1-7.) Not really the case with Discovery, although the Klingon subtitles alone have prevented me from rewatching.
But if you compare Discovery to more modern shows like, say, Game of Thrones, Daredevil... I don't watch much else!... they flew out of the gate. Comparatively speaking, Discovery lacks.
